Bad_pool_header bsod

[Quasimodem]

Well after downgrading from Windows 8, I now have a BAD_POOL_HEADER BSOD coming out of Hibernate... Never happened before upgrading to 8, then downgrading... I've tried 5 different Windows installs, using drivers from the Asus site...

Anyone familiar with the error?

perhaps he didn't notice it. by the way, is this peerblock effective? never used it before.

Well I've never gotten an email from Comcast Security Assurance so I'd like to think it's working... I wouldn't do anything with a torrent without it... I was running it at all times, but it blue screens me out of Hibernate, I'll have to limit it's use to downloading a torrent...

This is just a part of yesterday, while getting a Retail Ultimate 7 .iso

I also use Microsoft Security Essentials, it's very lightweight, and works well... no noticeable footprint... So between the both, I'm pretty protected...

Don't forget while torrenting you're getting incoming requests for sharing said data...and I do hope it's legit 😛 so all those blockages, are probably people trying to leech the data you've downloaded

disable hibernate, problem solved, bad for the computer anyways

run as admin - cmd prompt

powercfg /hibernate off

I've got this solved... and that's not a solution... if you bought a ferrari thats supposed to go 212, but it only goes 206, I'm sure you'd be mad, regardless of the never having to go that fast...

but using hibernation is like having a ferrari and putting a chevy engine in it
